C To expound, gravity and light travel at the same speed. * It is a fundamental fact of nature that nothing can travel faster than light, but matter slows light while gravity is not slowed or screened by anything. So light and gravity only travel at the same speed in the vacuum of space away from any mass.

How fast is the speed of gravity?

Gravity does not exactly have a speed, but it does cause an acceleration (on Earth) of 9.8 meters per second per second. It is also believed that gravity propagates through space at the speed of light (which is 300,000 kilometers per second).


How is speed affected by gravity?

Gravity acts as a barrier and slows it down. However, if you say, jump of a building. When you fall gravity will speed you up and you'll be dead fast. When you fall your speed is about 78mph. But that depends on the height of the building and wind direction.
